A Struggle for Precedence.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-George Aschil-
ling, of Chicago, was present at to-day's
meeting of the Central Labor union on
behalf of the condemned anarchists,
but was unable to offer his plea for aid
owing to time being taken up by other
business. President Gompers, of the
Trades federation, and Master Work.
man Quinn, of District assembly No.
40, were among the signers of an open
letter expressing sympathy with the
men, but it was not presented. The
meeting was principally occupied in a
struggle for precedence between the
socialists and the Henry George fac
tion, which was without result.
A delegate rose to ask that Schilling
be heard, but was asked to give way for
resolution in regular order that had
been overlooked. He did so, and the
resolution proved to be to the effect that
the Central Labor union should refuse
to allow its name to be used by any po-
litical body. The socialists were en-
ragged at the trick by which the resOlu-
ton had been introduced, and there
was much confusion. A motion to table
the resolution was lost, and the anti
socialists cheered vigorously. The So
cialists retOrted by shouting that their
opponents were afraid of debate.
Finally the resolution was adopted, SO
to A. Cheers for Henry George fol-.
lowed and were answered by shouts of
defiance from the socialists, and the
meeting adjourned in an uproar.

Anarchists Not Mentioned.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1s.-The anarchists
were not even mentioned this afternoon
in the Trade and Labor assembly. After
the meeting had adjourned Mark L.
Crawford said that. as organizations, he
thought none of the trades unions would
do anything, although great many of
them as individuals might enlist them
selves in behalf of the condemned men.
T. Maggaren, of the United Clerks as
sembly, sent in communication re-
questing all members of the Trade and
Labor assembly to deal only
with clerks who were members
of their organization. He says
that in this manner they will force all
the clerks to join the Clerks assembly,
and as no union clerk will recommend
non-union-made goods for sale, they will
eventually be able to drive all that class
of goods out of the market. The letter
provoked a smile from most of those
present, but one enthusiastic gentleman
was so enraptured with the idea that he
moved to have the communication read
at every meeting for the next four
months, and with burst of applause
the motion carried.

LONDON, Sept. 18.-The cZar, 1t has
always been understood, has superSti-
tious horror of war, and it is to this cir
cumstance that Prince Ferdinand, of
Bulgaria, owes the prolongation of his
reign, at least, so say the political gos-
sips. The emperor of the Russias has
been warned by some of the modern
soOthsayers, upon whose utterances he
seems to place reliance, that his reign
will come to an end during war. and
he breads the beginning of hOstilities.
The fate of the present Bulgarian regime
may be said to depend upon Germany,
and the existing condition of things will,
it is believed, endure until the meeting
OF the cZar and Emperor William at
Stettin, or, more accurately speaking,
until the date fixed for that meeting
for there is strong doubt of its ever
taking place. Meanwhile the
car desires to prolong peace
as long as possible, to postpone
crisis which even his inactiOn cannot
defer much longer. The diplomatic
agents of Italy, Austria and England in
Bulgaria show significant degree of
fraterniZation, while Turkey remains
inactive to the point of stupidity. A
decisive action by Germany would pre-
cipitate the crisis.
The hotels at Liverpool are crowded
with Americans returning from Euro
pean trips and awaiting passage for
New York. The number of these pill
grims is unprecedented. Many have
difficulty in securing accommodations.
This was especially the case last Fri
day.
The managers of the Midland railway
are likely to suffer for their suspension
OF the black signal system on the day
of the COncaSter races, which led to the
terrible accident involving the loss of
over score of lives. The black
system is vigorously insisted upon
by the English authorities, and the
public has been Mortified by the
thought that it is likely to be suspended
at the caprice of local managers, espec-
tally on days of heavy traffic, when the
most need for it's protection from acci-
dent exists. The affair has caused a
great sensation. The driver of the en-.
, giiie OF the express train has not yet
made statements He is apparently
acting under instructions to be reticent.
1t is said that he will claim that the air
brakes refused to answer to the
steam pressure, and the claim will be
made that there was ample opportunity
to stop the train had the brakes done
their work properly. An attempt will,
therefore, be made to discredit the
brake, which is an American invention.
The cholera outbreak in Italy contin-
ueS to increase in seriousness. The
alarm is made greater by the fact that
the disease is of more violent type than
that of recent years. This is attributed
by experts to the failure to completely
stamp out the germs of former epidem-
les, which has given Indigenous and
more active character to the scourge.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1s.-The presi-
dent and Mrs. Cleveland, Secretary Bay
ard and Mr.. and Mrs. Lamont arrived
at the Baltimore g. Potomac depot this
morning at 2:30 o'clock. Mrs. Cleve-
land and Mrs. Lamont were attired in
their ball dresses, having driven right
from the banquet in Philadelphia to the
depot. The president carried in his
hand a very pretty little basket trimmed
with broad blue libbon, a souvenir pre-
sented to Mrs. Cleveland. One of the
male attendants also carried the huge
bouquet of choice white roses which had
been presented to her in Philadelphia.
Owing to the late hour there were none
but the train hands and belated pas
sengers at the station. Carriages were
in waiting and the party Immediately
entered them and were driven to their
several homes. The president and Mrs.
Cleveland went to the White house,
where they remained until the after
noon, when they rode out to Oak View.
They were much fatigued from their
constant round of receptions, though
highly delighted with the trip. They
regarded the celebI alton as complete
success and a great demonstration, and
have nothing but praise for their re-
ception while in the Quaker City.
